After a three-fight win streak in the UFC, which included wins over
notables Caol Uno and Jeremy Stephens, Fisher dropped consecutive losses

opened his UFC career with wins over Andre Winner, Aaron Riley and Siver
(which earned a “Fight of the Night” bonus). But in his most recent
bout, his four-fight win streak came to a halt with a submission loss to
Cole Miller.
